HA coating did not improve #THA implant survival in our #veteran population. @womenAAHKS @DeptVetAffairs @JennaBernstein7 @AlexisGaskin32 @DrChadKrueger @eglieberman arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

MetS + BMI>40 had the highest risk of reoperation, and had a significantly higher revision and #PJI rates. @MayoOrthoRes @CamLedfordMD @BrianChalmersMD @orthosmash69 @kimtuckinAZ @BrdgPlt2Nowhere arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

30-day #ASA prophylaxis remains appropriate for patients undergoing THA. @womenAAHKS @ParviziJavad @RothmanOrtho @ashtongoldmanmd @eglieberman @DrAntoniaChen @ACR_MD arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

Preserving or partial PCL release, as opposed to full PCL release, can reduce anterior femoral translation and tibia IR, which correlates with optimized PROs. @womenAAHKS @AlexisGaskin32 @orthosmash69 @generalorthomd @jointdocShields @JennaBernstein7 arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

Who wears a surgical helmet system? The New Zealand Joint Registry found a lower rate of #PJI after #TKA with their use. @womenAAHKS @jointdocShields @NaanDerthaal @generalorthomd @ashtongoldmanmd @JennaBernstein7 arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

Risk of #PE is low, but if it happens the mortality is high after #TJA. What is your #DVT/PE prophylaxis regimen? @womenAAHKS @ParviziJavad @jointdocShields @AlexisGaskin32 @eglieberman @ACR_MD arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

This study found the incidence of dislocation after a primary #THA using constrained implants was 1.1%, compared with 0.3% for dual mobility. @womenAAHKS @JennaBernstein7 @CenterRotation @BoneDocMMD @drsebheaven @orthosmash69 arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

Dx #PJI after #THA with high accuracy: *<6wks: CRP ≥100 mg/L or syn WBCs ≥4390 cells/μL. *6 -12wks: CRP ≥33 mg/L, syn WBC ≥26,995 cells/μL, and neuts ≥93%. @womenAAHKS @MayoOrthoRes @orthosmash69 @DrAntoniaChen @jointdocShields @kate_wynne arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

Is leukocyte esterase a part of your work up for #PJI at the 2nd stage? @womenAAHKS @DrAntoniaChen @BrianChalmersMD @CenterRotation @AlexisGaskin32 @JennaBernstein7 arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

The next step is to understand the reasoning behind these differences. Large-scale consolidation seems unlikely to improve these results. @AAOS1 doi.org/10.1016/j.arth…

Compared to primary THAs performed with the PA, DAA cases had a lower risk of dislocation, higher survivorship with dislocation as an endpoint, and a lower risk of revision for instability in this single institution cohort. @AAHKS_YAG doi.org/10.1016/j.arth…

"Compared to the CR, an UC insert did not increase revision rates and was actually lower than a PS insert." which poly/technique do you use? @BrianChalmersMD @jointdocShields @CenterRotation @kate_wynne

If your patient does well after their first #THA, they will likely do well after their second, too. @AAHKS_YAG Still, joints are like children/relatives: You may love them both but, depending on the day and circumstances you are likely to have a favorite doi.org/10.1016/j.arth…

More data from @RothmanOrtho @ParviziJavad @ResearchAtJeff @EmanueleChisari the potential benefits of aspirin for #DVT prevention doi.org/10.1016/j.arth…

Registry data has its flaws but this is a thought-provoking article on #UKA vs #TKA doi.org/10.1016/j.arth… @AAHKS

Congratulations to the graduating chief residents! Graduation was a wonderful time and we’re looking forward to the new interns joining us in a few short weeks!

Commonly asked question by surgeons and patients alike: How high is too high for Co/Cr levels after MoM #THA? doi.org/10.1016/j.arth…
